Cairn at Winyards Nick 470m south east of Mitchell Field is a Bronze Age funerary monument located in Derbyshire. The cairn represents a characteristic form of burial practice from the Bronze Age period, when such stone-built mounds were constructed to mark the graves of individuals or small groups within upland communities. The site's location in the Peak District landscape reflects the Bronze Age use of high ground for burial sites, a pattern widely documented across northern England. Such cairns typically consisted of stones heaped over a central burial deposit, though the specific internal structure and contents of this particular example would require archaeological investigation to establish with certainty.
